>#MikePatton #FaithNoMore#MrBungle was the band that truly opened me to the world of experimental music, and changed my life forever. Before that I listened to stuff like Korn, Mushroomhead, and Slipknot. The funny thing about listening to those bands, is the fact that each one of them were EXTREMELY influenced by Mr. Bungle/Faith No More. Korn was a band called LAPD before Korn, and they were a funk/metal hybrid very reminiscent of Bungle. They even have a style of guitar playing they call the "bungle" chord for their more experimental songs. Mushroomhead, especially their earlier albums, is basically a heavier version of Faith No More Listen to their songs "Simpleton" or "The Wrist", for example. And if you listen to Slipknots first album Mate Kill Feed Repeat - it's basically a straight up Mr. Bungle ripoff. This band influenced my life before I even knew they existed, and everything came full circle
